Importer notes: "Traditionally this wine (previously called Pouilly-Fuissé C.C) has been a blend of fruit from two 40- to 50-year-old parcels on the steep, chalky western slope of the Roche de Vergisson in the La Côte and En Carmentrant vineyards (hence the ‘C.C’ tag). This year sees the addition of a third parcel, Les Crays, so there are now three “c’s”, hence Les Trois C. To break it down, La Côte, which sits directly below the majestic rock, faces north-east and offers a cool, mineral line. The south-facing vines in En Carmentrant add to the fleshy texture, while Les Crays is a beautifully located vineyard (mid-slope on the steep ‘belly’ of la Roche de Vergisson) with cool, rocky soils that bring a beautiful mineral lift and structural austerity to this blend. A touch of press wine from the estate’s other lots of Pouilly-Fuissé brings structure, as does the fact that the wine was raised in 30% new oak. It is layered, racy, complex and long. This is simply superb white Burgundy."
